AI Product Engineer
One team. Many products. Endless opportunities to grow.
At Povio, we build digital products that create a positive impact. From AI-powered applications and SaaS platforms to consumer products used by millions, we help ambitious companies turn ideas into software people genuinely enjoy using.
We started our journey at Y Combinator, the accelerator behind companies like Airbnb, Dropbox, and Stripe. Since then, we've partnered with startups, scaleups, and established businesses across a wide range of industries and technologies.
AI is part of how we work and what we build - from LLM-based workflows to intelligent reporting pipelines and entirely new ways of interacting with software. We see it as one of the biggest shifts in modern software development and are excited to explore its potential together.
We're looking for an AI Product Engineer who can navigate ambiguity and enjoy exploring what's possible with modern engineering and AI.
Join our team in Celje, Ljubljana, Maribor, Prishtina or Sarajevo and help build products for ambitious startups, scaleups, and global companies.
What you'll do
- Build products using React, Node.js, and modern AI-assisted development workflows, from the first technical conversations to production deployment.
- Collaborate with designers, product teams, and clients to transform ideas into software that creates real value for users and businesses.
- Own features end-to-end, from early discovery and technical planning through implementation, launch, and iteration, thinking beyond individual components to the complete product experience.
- Use AI as part of your everyday workflow and contribute to how modern engineering practices evolve across the team.
- Take ownership beyond implementation by challenging assumptions, identifying risks, and proposing better approaches.
- Help raise the quality bar by simplifying complexity, improving developer experience, and introducing better tools, technologies, and AI-powered workflows where they create real value.
- Tackle diverse challenges across products that span different industries, business models, and technical domains - no two projects are quite the same.
What we're looking for
- 4+ years of experience building modern web applications with React and Node.js.
- AI is part of how you build software - whether it's Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, Codex, agentic workflow, or spec-driven approaches - you're comfortable leveraging AI to increase your effectiveness while applying the engineering judgment needed to validate the outcome.
- Experience taking products and features from idea to production.
- Strong engineering judgment and the ability to balance speed, quality, and pragmatism.
- Clear communication skills and comfort collaborating directly with teammates, clients, and stakeholders.
- Ownership mindset and the ability to work independently when needed.
Bonus points if you've
- Built AI-powered features, workflows, agents, or LLM integrations.
- Experimented with emerging AI-native ways of building software.
- Worked in startup or product-focused environments.
What makes this role different
- Real ownership: You're trusted to shape solutions, challenge assumptions, and influence decisions - not just implement requirements.
- Direct access to decision-making: giving you visibility into both the technical and business side of decisions.
- Build for what's next: AI is increasingly part of both the products we build and the way we build them.
- Grow with the industry: Software development is changing rapidly. We invest heavily in modern engineering practices and expect our engineers to continuously evolve alongside them.
- Beyond a single product: Tackle different technical and product challenges that keep your work interesting and your skills evolving.
- Impact over output: We care less about how many lines of code you write and more about the outcomes you create.
- Built around empowered teams: Our engineers work in small, highly collaborative teams where ownership is valued over hierarchy and good ideas can quickly turn into action.
We increasingly think in terms of complete solutions rather than individual layers of the stack. The best engineers aren't asking whether something is frontend or backend - they're asking what needs to exist for the product to work.
